ABOUT THIS ALBUM

Album Notes

So how did a shy kid from Thibodaux, LA, just south of New Orleans, find his way to the east coast and on to the airwaves of an industry giant like MTV? The modest, unassuming Stephen Reso would tell you it's just luck, but his fans, local radio and music critics will tell you differently. Honing his skills as a member of several notable 90's bands such as Underground Cartoons, Reso paid his dues in every smoky, dark club from New Orleans to Dover to NYC.

Along the way he developed a sound and style all his own and in the mid 90's decided to seize the solo spotlight. After a deal with one label fell through, his demo tape landed in the hands of Indian, president of Gig Records. A seasoned veteran of the music industry, Indian liked what he heard and promptly signed Reso to his label. In 2002, the critically acclaimed "Ordinary Life" was released and quickly became a radio standard on the central PA airwaves.

The buzz surrounding the disc soon made its way to the studios of MTV who highlighted tracks from "Ordinary Life" on their Real World/Road Rules Challenge Series.

Stephen Reso has had the honor of opening for notable recording artists and bands such as Material Issue; Tommy Conwell; Fuel; Better Than Ezra; The Smithereens; Gene Loves Jezebel; The Romantics.
